Helps SEO while still providing some link love to your favorite sites.<\/p>\n\n<p>The default setting for WordPress Blogrolls does not add the rel=\"nofollow\" attribute to links. If you are familiar with Search Engine Optimization, you know that linking out to other sites from every single page of your site (as a Blogroll does) can hurt your SEO because you lose too much link juice. It also doesn't really  help the sites you're linking to because search engine don't place as much value on sitewide links - all the other sites need is one good link from your site.<\/p>\n\n<p>This plugin will allow you to give link love to sites in your Blogroll from the homepage of your site or front page of your blog, which are most likely the strongest pages anyway. On all the other interior pages of your site, the rel=\"nofollow\" attribute will be added to Blogroll links to prevent unnecessary bleeding of link juice. This is different from some other plugins in that it doesn't add nofollow to the Blogroll links on the homepage or the blog front page. (The homepage and the blog front page may be the same thing on many sites, but in WordPress there is a differentiation for people who have the blog at a different URL form the main WordPress directory on the same site. For example: if the WordPress directory is <code>yourblog.com<\/code> and the blog URL is <code>yourblog.com\/blog\/<\/code>)<\/p>\n\n<p>For a more thorough explanation of what the plugin does and why you need it, visit the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.redsandmarketing.com\/plugins\/rs-nofollow-blogroll\/\" title=\"RS Nofollow Blogroll Plugin\">RS Nofollow Blogroll homepage<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<h4>Installation Instructions<\/h4>\n\n<p><strong>Option 1:<\/strong> Install the plugin directly through the WordPress Admin Dashboard (Recommended)<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li><p>Go to <em>Plugins<\/em> -&gt; <em>Add New<\/em>.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Type <em>RS Nofollow Blogroll<\/em> into the Search box, and click <em>Search Plugins<\/em>.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>When the results are displayed, click <em>Install Now<\/em>.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>When it says the plugin has successfully installed, click <strong>Activate Plugin<\/strong> to activate the plugin (or you can do this on the Plugins page).<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p><strong>Option 2:<\/strong> Install .zip file through WordPress Admin Dashboard<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li><p>Go to <em>Plugins<\/em> -&gt; <em>Add New<\/em> -&gt; <em>Upload<\/em>.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Click <em>Choose File<\/em> and find <code>rs-nofollow-blogroll.zip<\/code> on your computer's hard drive.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Click <em>Install Now<\/em>.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Click <strong>Activate Plugin<\/strong> to activate the plugin (or you can do this on the Plugins page).<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p><strong>Option 3:<\/strong> Install .zip file through an FTP Client (Recommended for Advanced Users Only)<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li><p>After downloading, unzip file and use an FTP client to upload the enclosed <code>rs-nofollow-blogroll<\/code> directory to your WordPress plugins directory (usually <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code>) on your web server.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Go to your Plugins page in the WordPress Admin Dashboard, and find this plugin in the list.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Click <strong>Activate<\/strong> to activate the plugin.<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<h4>Other Notes<\/h4>\n\n<p>This plugin has not been designed specifically for use with Multisite.
